More about Dave's hypocrisy

I read the book of Genesis, and the chapters that followed invariably sent me to sleep. –Mahatma Gandhi

Greetings, everyone! In my previous article, I proved how hypocrisy is prevailing in the name of Jesus. Also, I hope you noted that I don’t oppose Christianity. But, I oppose the hypocrisy of orthodox Christianity.

Why did Mahatma Gandhi dislike the Old Testament?

For a book that’s supposed to be “holy”, it really talks a lot about murder, rape, human sacrifice, animal sacrifice, genocides, burning towns, and so on. In my opinion, it is better to be an atheist than to be someone like Dave who believes the laws of the Old Testament to be legitimate even today. If you don’t agree, then think about why no one has been stoned to death by atheists!

We live in an age of science, logic and reasoning, and even in such a world, some people still believe in fairytales. Such people not only hinder the progress and development of this world, but also try to force other people to believe what they don’t want to.

Dave says that salvation can be found only through Jesus. We all know that God will not judge us by where we were born, or what our skin color is. All God wants from us is righteousness. But, according to Dave, no matter how righteous you are, if you are not a Christian, you are going to hell. They claim their religion to be true and others false. Such people should not even dare touch the subject of love and compassion because they are showing the exact opposite through their false propaganda. Such people are making a mockery out of God’s love and kindness. They make it seem as if God is a cruel monster. So, according to Dave if you are born in a very rural area, where Christianity never got preached, and in your entire life, you never heard of Jesus, it means you are going to hell!

If Jesus existed, I admit he is undoubtedly the best or the second best person in the whole world. But, my point is that people like Dave are far from being followers of Jesus. They don’t even know what the real name of Jesus was. They don’t worship Jesus; they worship the Bible which was not written by Jesus nor any of his followers. Majority of the pages of the Bible were written by people who wanted to misguide humanity. Dave and his chums take all words from the Old Testament to be words of God. They are actually insulting God when they are indirectly saying that God asked for human sacrifice and animal sacrifice.

I asked Dave to read the Gospel of the Holy Twelve and even sent it to him through an email. But, without even reading a single paragraph, Dave looked up on some random articles written by anonymous people in Wikipedia or somewhere and claimed that it was a hoax without even reading it! I don’t know what else to say about his foolishness.

It’s funny that though nowhere in the Bible it says that Jesus liked the Old Testament, Dave and such people claim that He did. Dave’s version of Christianity contradicts with the teachings of Jesus. Let me show you some major differences between the two:

Teachings of Jesus Christ	Teachings of Dave Gifford
1. The laws of the Old Testament are flawed. They should be rejected. (John 8: 1- 11)	1. The laws of the Old Testament are commands of God. Accept them.
2. God desires mercy, not animal sacrifice. (Matthew 12: 7)	2. God desires both mercy and animal sacrifice.
3. God loves animals. (Matthew 6: 26)	3. God does not love animals.
4. To enter heaven, one needs to be righteous. (Matthew 7: 21)	4. To enter heaven, one needs to believe in Jesus.
5. Christians are not supposed to eat animal flesh. (Gospel of the Holy Twelve)	5. Christians are free to eat animal flesh.

If you have any questions about God or morality, the Bible will not give you an absolute answer. The following is a list of self-contradictions in the Bible-

Question number 1: Is every word in the Bible the word of God?

1 Corinthians 7: 25: … I do not have a command from the Lord, but I give my opinion as one who by the Lord’s mercy is worthy of trust.

2 Timothy 3: 16: All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching the truth…

Question number 2- Is Jesus equal to God?

John 14: 28: …for the Father is greater than I.

John 10: 30: The father and I are one.

Question number 3- Should we observe the Sabbath?

Exodus 20: 8: Observe the Sabbath and keep it holy.

Romans 14: 5: One person thinks that a certain day is more important than other days, while someone else thinks that all days are the same. Each one should firmly make up his own mind.

Question number 4- Can we see God?

Exodus 33: 11: The Lord would speak with Moses face to face, just as a man speaks with a friend.

John 1: 18: No one has ever seen God.

Question number 5- Were the laws and words of God perfect?

Hebrews 8: 7: If there had been nothing wrong with the first covenant, there would have been no need for a second one.

Psalms 18: 30: This God- how perfect are His deeds! How dependable are His words!

Question number 6- Does God want some people to go to hell?

Proverbs 16: 4: Everything the Lord has made has its destiny; and the destiny of the wicked is destruction.

2 Peter 3: 9: …He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants all to turn away from their sins.

Question number 7: Where does God rule?

Psalms 9: 11: Sing praise to the Lord, who rules in Zion!

Psalms 123: 1: Lord, I look up to you, up to heaven, where you rule!

Question number 8- Is it okay for Christians to curse people?

Romans 12: 14: Ask God to bless those who persecute you- yes, ask him to bless, not to curse.

2 Corinthians 16: 22: Whoever does not love the Lord- a curse on him!

Question number 9: Who gave Moses the Ten Commandments?

Exodus 20: 1: God spoke, and these were his words: …

Galatians 3: 19: The Law was handed down by angels, with a man acting as a go-between.

Question number 10: Should innocents be killed?

1 Samuel 15: 3: Don’t leave a thing; kill all the men, women, children, and babies; the cattle, sheep, camels and donkeys.

Proverbs 6: 16- 19: There are seven things that the Lord hates and cannot tolerate: A proud look, a lying tongue, hands that kill innocent people…

And, that’s not all. The ten self-contradictions listed above are just a few examples. The Bible is a book full of such worthless messages and that’s the reason it is extremely offensive to say that everything written in it was commanded by God.

People like Dave are trying to take over our free will. They want us to do as the Bible says. Plus, they want us to follow it by heart according to how THEY interpret the Bible. People like Dave are also probably convinced that the Bible says whatever they themselves believe to be right.

Many people, in order to gain advantage over others, wrote a few doctrines, claimed it to be the word of God, and expected others to obey it. Many people were fooled. And, people like Dave, even today, are still deceived by those false doctrines and fairytales which were written by people two millennia ago. In addition, there is no evidence that those events ever took place. It’s pathetic that even in today’s world people like Dave still believe that those ridiculous and laughable laws and commands came from God. They have been completely brainwashed and even if Jesus comes back to our world in the flesh, they would turn a blind eye to Him. Instead, they would laugh at Jesus, and call him a “hoax”.

These people like Dave who call themselves Christians are the very people who are murdering the teachings of Jesus. If He were to come back, people like Dave would be nothing but an embarrassment to Christ Himself.

Blessed are the merciful.
